International Center of Photography | How is Instagram Changing the World? @icplive | Uploaded May 2015 | Updated October 2024, 21 minutes ago.
Presented on May 13, 2015, this panel asked: Is Instagram a real agent of change or the ultimate symbol of our ever-growing cultural obsession for images? Is its worldwide success the representation of the emergence of a whole generation’s new language, defined both by professionals and amateurs? What can we learn from examples as different as the international movement @EverydayAfrica, and its local spin-offs, or @LiveLoveBeirut dispelling stereotypes, or Thomas Dworzak's sociological take on teenagers taking selfies while visiting Auschwitz, published as a book?
Moderated by Fred Ritchin (Dean of ICP School) with @EverydayAfrica's Austin Merrill, Elodie Mailliet Storm of Getty Images, and Youmna ChamCham of @LiveLoveBeirut.
